Scrafty (Japanese: ズルズキンZuruzukin) is a Dark/Fighting-typePokémon introduced in Generation V. One Scrafty is used by Grimsley. It appears to be based on a street gangster as it can be seen pulling its skin up, possibly referring to the modern style of sagging. It also has something on its head, which appears to be a mohawk.

Scrafty and its pre-evolution Scraggy are the only two Dark/Fighting-type Pokémon to date, making Flying and Fighting-type being the only moves that are super effective against it.
